  • Towards the Kalmar Union
    S P E C I A L I Z E D A G E N C I E S TOWARDS THE KALMAR UNION Dear Delegates, Welcome to the 31st Annual North American Model United Nations 2016 at the University of Toronto! On behalf of all of the staff at NAMUN, we welcome you to the Specialized Agency branch of the conference. I, and the rest of the committee staff are thrilled to have you be a delegate in Scandinavia during the High Middle Ages, taking on this challenging yet fascinating topic on the futures of the three Scandinavian Kingdoms in a time of despair, poverty, dependence and competitiveness. This will truly be a new committee experience, as you must really delve into the history of these Kingdoms and figure out how to cooperate with each other without sending everyone into their demise. To begin, in the Towards the Kalmar Union Specialized Agency, delegates will represent influential characters from Denmark, Norway and Sweden, which include prominent knights, monarchs, nobles, and important religious figures who dominate the political, military and economic scenes of their respective Kingdoms. The impending issues that will be discussed at the meeting in Kalmar, Sweden include the future of the Danish and Norwegian crowns after the death of the sole heir to the thrones, Olaf II. Here, two distant relatives to Valdemar IV have a claim to the throne and delegates will need to decide who will succeed to the throne. The second order of business is to discuss the growing German presence in Sweden, especially in major economic cities.

Excerpt from a letter by Peter Minuit to Swedish Chancellor Axel Oxenstierna As navigation makes kingdoms and countries thrive and in the West­Indies [North America] many places gradually come to be occupied by the English, Dutch, and French, I think the Swedish Crown ought not to stand back and refrain from having her name spread widely, also in foreign countries; and to that end I the undersigned, wish to offer my services to the Swedish The Kalmar Nyckel Foundation Crown to set out modestly on what might, by God’s Written & Compiled By grace, become something great within a short Samuel Heed, Esq. time [emphasis added]. With Captain Lauren Morgens & Alistair Gillanders, Esq. Firstly, I have suggested to Mr. Pieter Spiering [Spiring, Swedish Ambassador to the Hague] to make a journey to the Virginias, New Netherland and other places, in which regions certain places are well known to me, with a very good climate, which could be named Nova Sweediae [New Sweden]….

  • Public Procurement of Buses Kalmar County
    Public procurement of buses in Kalmar County, Sweden Public procurement of buses Kalmar County This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Page 1 of 4 research and innovation programme. Public procurement of buses in Kalmar County, Sweden Background and description of the good practice Kalmar County consists of a lot of farm land and a lot of livestock. Also the municipality of Kalmar and the isle of Öland are very popular holiday resorts. The city of Kalmar was e.g. voted to the best Swedish summer city for the third time. But at the same time the Baltic Sea suffers from over- fertilization. Especially the surplus of phosphorous is a problem. For example, on the isle of Öland, located near the cost, there are 2,5 cows per inhabitant. If the farmers wish to by more animals they have to buy more land which is a serious obstacle for them. Kalmar County represents 2,4 % of all the inhabitants in Sweden but stands for 25 % of chicken production and 12 % of milk production in the country making the farming a very important industry. Our politicians have recognized that biogas/bio-methane can be one of the solutions because it not only reduces the metane leaks from the farms but it also delivers a renewable fuel to our vehicles and digestate that can be certified as an ecological fertilizer. The public procurement is generally made for 8 + 2 years. Since the latest procurement was made in 2007, it was time for a new procurement. It covers all the 12 municipalities in the County and is administrated by the Regional Public Transport Administration whereas the final decisions are made by the politicians in the County Council, head of the transport administration.
